Are you following the Candidates' Tournament? Nepo is itching for another crack at Magnus.
“Are you following the Candidates’ Tournament?”
Not closely.
“Nepo is itching for another crack at Magnus.”
Probably. However, I’m not sure he’ll get it. Magnus said that he’s faced (defeated) the prior generation, and the current generation, and would continue to play if he faced the next generation. But who knows?
I watched an old series on the senses. A master chef had far more taste buds on his tongue than normal. Cause or effect? Rod Laver had a very large right forearm. I wonder if the greatest chess players have more brain cells for spatial relations. I briefly read about a 12-year-old grandmaster. It is hard not to believe that he has a gift. We may all be blank slates at birth, just not the same blank slate.
